Artemis walked beside AJ back to her dorm. Temi was carrying the white bag that had 'Thank you' written in red all over it. The box of pregnancy test strips was inside, three in all. She steered AJ straight to the bathroom. She took out the box and opened it, holding it out to AJ.
Are you ready?

AJ took a deep breath. I'm ready... She said. She quickly used the strip and held it up. Positive. She said, her eyes tearing up. I can't believe I'm having a baby.

Artemis had gone to the bathroom at the same time as AJ. She unwraped the tester and used it. The thing was taking so long to show up she shook it angrily, yet silently. Finally an ominous positive came onto the digital screen. She unwraped the other one and used that one, hoping the first had been a dud. Not Artemis' luck--the second one was positive as well. She walked out of the stall having disposed of the detachable part. The black haired girl held the strip up, her eyes wide with fear. She turned to AJ.

"At least we have each other." She said. "We should really go to the doctor. We're only 16, and if we're gonna have these kids, we're gonna need to know what to do." She said shakily.

Artemis' eyes were still wide with horror. She'd only ever had sex once. And that was not consentingly. She turned to AJ and breathed, "It's my sibling. I'm going to give birth to my sibling! That f.ucking son of a b.itch!" She angrily slammed her foot into the toilet stall's wall, beating against it with her fist repetitively. Getting angrier and angrier each passing hit. She turned to AJ, pulling up the sleeves of her longsleeve white undershirt, revealing the circular bruises. She lifted her foot sideways and rolled up her pant's leg, half pulling her foot out of her shoe revealing identical marks. "He did that! Ankle cuffs--Handcuffs--gag! Oh he planned it all, AJ! But no condom! Why would he use a condom on his own d.amn daughter? That was my 16th birthday present. Most girls get a huge party and a car, but I got raped three times in a 48 hour period and threatened with my life if I told anyone! But now.... I could seriously give a s.hit because my child will just carry on his blood and that shouldn't happen."

AJ's face softened. She had been to worried about her own problem to think about Artemis.
No.
She said to Artemis.
You're going to give birth to this child and raise it. It's not going to be like him. It's going to be like you.
She said, trying to boost Artemis' confidence.

Why would anyone want to be like me? An abusive father--lesbian mother....
Her voice faltered as she tried to speak again, but even though she coughed to clear it, all it did was make her rush back to the bathroom stall to throw up. She came out and rushed to the sink, then she grabbed some paper towels and wiped around her mouth though nothing was there. She rinsed out her mouth with the bottle of water she'd bought at the store as well. She spit the nasty water back into the sink and then actually drank some now thath er mouth was clean.

Because. You're not abusive or a lesbian. And this baby has a chance for like, Artemis, don't take that away.
She said. As she thought about Artemis, then of her, she felt her confidence rise.
My dad killed my mom. But I ran, and my brother ran. I don't know where the fuck my brother is, but I put it all behind me. If I can do it, you can do it.
She said, trying to reassure the girl.
